The effort to get out the vote does not end until the last poll closes. It's not too late to volunteer! I'm off to New Hampshire to drive people to the polls. For local peeps, phonebanking is in progress at 179 Lincoln near South Station until at least 8 pm.
oh, wow, *all* those pictures made me smile. It's been a long time since we've had hope, but nice cautiously having some. (my oldest voted - as did a lot of her friends. the hope comes from several directions.)

We took Girly when we voted in the election here.
Excellent work and very nice to drive people to the polls too.

You're alive! And what a good day to be alive it is. I'm actually feeling a bit optimistic...

Trust you're doing good work in New Hampshire. Great pictures, esp. of PeachPit, who's looking a special combination of grown up and relaxed. Cheers.

Yes I voted this am, as well. I could not wait. I love the pictures, especially those of the fam, our favorite community activist ( remember that buzz word, Sarah Palin !) and a increasingly beautiful Pit !
